Abstract

The article summarizes the experience of many years of research and production activities of the authors in the areas of physical chemistry and chemical technology of the glassy state of matter. The results of the analysis show that environmental problems are generated not only by the science of chemistry but also by the use of its results in an ecologically illiterate person. It is noted that without chemistry humanity cannot exist comfortably and, most importantly, solve the accumulated environmental problems. In support of the above, some examples of the developments of the authors in the energy sector, high-temperature technology, glass technology, and the field of glassy phosphorus-containing fertilizers, the creation of waste-free industries, and a comprehensive study of the physicochemical laws of obtaining glassy fertilizers are given by oil sorbents of inorganic and organic nature.
